The array sensor 1 and the signal processing circuit 7 are connected by metal bumps 2.4 via a pitch adjustment board 3 and a vertical conversion board 6. The pitch adjustment board 3 is used when the connection pitch of the sensor 1 cannot be matched due to the laminated state of the vertical conversion board 6. They are electrically connected through a hole 5. Note that if high-density wiring is required, this can be achieved by using a thin ceramic substrate and filling the through holes with tungsten or the like.
